I like the old forum better

[maryjaneguitargurl]

The old forum was better. its like the other forums not the same wahwahhwahh oh well. Can you put a picture on ur profile like u could on the old one?

[Danimal]

After a while you'll never remember the old forum.
I'm sure somethings have been lost, but they'll get them back.
This is much better in my opinion.

[Sera Michele]

This is pretty new, i am sure there will be a few changes before its done...Hopefully we will see some of our old posts again!

[We_All_Shine_On]

fuck yeah, the old forum was SO much better. i know we need to give this time,but i was LESS THAN 50 POSTS AWAY FROM 1000!!!!!! :(

[SharyBobbins]

Yeah these forums suck. I was a senior member and now am labeled as a guest. WTF???

[Dandelion_Blood]

Feeling nostaligic..

http://www.hipforums.com/forumdisplay.php3?FID=1175

something of the old ways of the forum that i found :)
enjoy!

[Velouria]

The old forums felt much more personal for some reason. I definitely miss them.

[Marlyn]

I like the old ones to, but change is always good, maybe i'll get used to it and start liking these ones better.

[A Clockwork Orange*]

I don't like it! It took me two years to get used to using the old forums. I'm crap with computers and all that jazz..

[fizzy_elf]

oh, i know what you mean by the old forums being more personal. i liked the old ones better too :( i thought i had gone to the wrong site at first y'know :) hehehe:)

[borut16]

oh, i know what you mean by the old forums being more personal. i liked the old ones better too :( i thought i had gone to the wrong site at first y'know :) hehehe:)yea...these look like so hmm, too modern, too robotic!
But we might get used to them, and I don't know, it might get even better than it used to be!

[fizzy_elf]

i miss the groovy backgrounds and the pretty stars :(

[wolf_at_door]

Nicks & numbers of threads are not important.
But I'm sad, and I think it's senseless to delete hundreds of open threads just for the purpose of introducing this fancy new image.
I'm also worried that many people will quit, because of their frustrations of this. I almost did, since I haven't received a mail in advance (which is also a serious critique to direct). -I just found out about all this a few hours ago, and I was totally confused, because I didn't hear anything about it.

love and understanding,
noose.

[Autentique]

:confused:

I feel so lost.. I mean I'm not saying this or the other was better, I haven't been around this one long enough to judge it. But everything has changed and I miss our old threads.. hope they'll put them back.

[luvndrumn]

Wolfie, the lost posts wasn't a product of the new way. The server host screwed the pooch!! One of their techs was doing maintenance and messed up, deleting, as I understand it, damn near all of Hipforums. The server host had not backed up the site (a violation of the contract), and here we are. Skip is working, as only he can, to restore what he can. Have patience everyone.:)


Y'know, what's funny to me is that the majority of folks who are saying "I don't like the new" are using the functionality of the new in their posts and sigs.:rolleyes:

WALK THE TALK, KIDDIES!!!:p

It's ALL good.:)

I dont want just to complain without being positive and constructive. don't misunderstand. It's just a little confusing, all this - especially because we weren't being mailed in advance.

love and understanding,
noose.

[maryjaneguitargurl]

to me its just like the other forums the same as the otheres so boring

[LadyComet]

This place needs to become more colorful! We need to hand out paint, crayons, markers and other coloring items and everyone begin coloring!!!!!!

[madcrappie]

whine whine whine. I went through 2 forum changes, its not that big of a deal really, just need to get used to a little change.

[xaosflux]

As all accounts are being registered all users have been labeld GUEST. Major work getting the forums back up and running is still being undergone, user titles will be looked at soon. Note: Once you are set validated you can give yourself a user tiles under the USER CP menu at the top of the screen, it will replace your Defaut User title. Moderators will still have access to your group. Giving yourself a user title including the words Moderator, Webmaster, Administrator, ect are not approriate.

[sila]

I'm not too fond of the new look, but it will probably grow on me.

[cerridwen]

I liked this forum over the others because it didn't look like this... but now that hipforums has conformed to the way everyone else has done it... I'm questioning whether to stay here or not...

[SharyBobbins]

stay. the more people, the better the forum.

[4_Leaf_Clover]

i liked the old format a LOT better.

but oh well, change is healthy.

~going with the flow~

[kissin_the_clouds]

i liked the old one.....

dang when i first came to this newness..i was like...WAT the HECK is this?

i was confused..and its gonna take a while to get used to it..oh well

[Ellie-Rose]

I do like the older version.. But this one is actually growing on me now!!

[bradleydontpush]

I did like the other one alot better, this one's alright though. It just seems all high tech like. It's trippin me out! I lost my old screenname too. Well not really, it's the same kinda. Hey, how do I become a member?

Xaos, there is much more admin control over this site now. So things like custom titles, signature photos, etc. are options only available to those who reach full member status. Other more advanced options are reserved for those who support the site. More details later.

[beachbum7]

Right now, i like the old forum better. But the new forums do have some advantages. I haven't been able to find all of them yet, I like being able to post in blue, my favorite color.

[AoXoMoXoA420]

so does everyone else.

get over it

[Arioch]

Wow, I'm lucky - I just recently joined the forums, I hadn't got used to the site yet, and had only made two posts. Once again proving Dylan's thesis:

"When you got nothing, you got nothing to lose."

So, hi y'all!

[sweetdreadlover]

i know i lost my 8,000 post status....im a bit unnerved

[Maggie Sugar]

These new forums are fine. I am glad the pictures are gone. Too much to scroll through. Also a pain in the ass when the same person was replying again and again and you had to keep looking at his or her huge sig pic.

I like this one.

I was over 2000 posts, but big deal. Life changes.

[HappyJoy]

i feel a little overwhelmed...

[daysye]

i agree...i like the old ones better...the new ones are harder to figure out.....i can not believe that we all have to start over again....i think we should have been still able to sign in under what our names were so that we could pick up where we left off because we were the ones that spent many hours on here to get all of the posts that we did....and just because there was a problem we all have to start as a guest?....WTF, man....

[Dolphin~Rider]

Change is a good thing. It keeps us evolving.

here are some of the old fourms. Just go to your post and then you can vistit the old ones:cool:

[serra]

i like the look of these ones better personally. but i do have to say i miss my old 2000 posts.... it took me so long to get there!

:(

but skip and co. are working hard to get things back on track and maybe eventually we can get our old status back... maybe.

but i definatlely like the look of these better! i love purple! =)

[Applespark]

I had quite a few posts too...like over 3 years of posts. I liked being able to view my threads. I used that feature a lot and now it's not here any more

even though I am pretty engaged with the old one... I think is not a worth to continue using it... in this case the chaos will be the emperor.. people won't know who is posting where.. and we are gonna lose each other contact & messages...
I suggest to stuck all together to the new one... and maybe asking to the the Super-Gods of the forum to implement all the old stuff still "not corrupted"... if this is possible somehow... :)

[EddieV1984]

The only thing i like about the old forums more than this one is that you knew a little more about other people, like theyre gender....but hey, its cool!

[Andrei]

All I remember are the forums about 4 years ago...

[interval_illusion]

god, you people crack me up.

[Jennifer19]

I like the old fourms better tooo:) :D

[TheLittleOne]

I'm definitely way attatched to the old forums. It'll be hard leaving them behind. I had shared so much of my life with you all on it...now it's gone...

[Synkronos23]

hey same old crap everyone else posts....new here. New to these hippie forums...but I am coming to terms with reality. The reality is I am a HIPPIE. I want to live off the land, do the communal living, love bon fires, love the star, tribal escapades and ritual, etc. I want to get off the grid and be self reliant. I am not a sheep and do not want to be herded any longer. I am more of a goat, a she-goat. On to the rest of the bio....

I am tip-toeing on thirty. Mother of an amazing 4 year old that is in remission from leukemia....I blame the environment and fluoride in the water system...I have a right to be upset. I see innocent children with cancer weekly and its a horrible thing. I want to get back in tune with nature. Let the Earth take care of me and I will take care of her. The universe bows to the current. But let's try to stay positive here. " I build my world from LEGOS!"

I just recently married the beast of my dreams on 7-7-07.

I am a gnostic thelemic Chaos magician transcendentalist. I will just invent my own labels but I have a few other things under my belt notch. If you don't like my terminology we can just agree to disagree.

I like William Reich, Tesla, Robert anton Wilson, Bryin Gysin, William S burroughs, Austin Osman Spare, Uncle Al, Genesis P. Orridge, Timothy Leary, Hunter S Thompson, Michael Tsarion, Freeman, Jordan Maxwell, Jonathan Sellers and Allen Greenfield and many others.

That's a small introductory offer for those who hung with this post long enough to come to its end.

[ensue]

synkronos, welcome! that's definitely the best into i've read here yet! i hope you have a lovely time here on the forum. :)
